My friend is moving from her apt. because of a bad situation and she asked me to go over there today to help her get organized and packed. I did and she directed me as to what I should do. When I was cleaning out stuff she told me that if I saw something I wanted I could just go ahead and take it. I told her that I was not over there to take her stuff, I was over there to just help her. I did see some things that I wanted and I took them, a few of them I ask her about and then some of the things I didn't ask her about feeling embarrassed to ask her because I didn't want her to feel like I was just over there to "cash in." Now I feel guilty, like I stole from her, and I knew she was going to end up giving me some stuff and I wonder "was I really over there just to "cash in" on her move?" Cause that was not my intention. I have a guilt complex anyway. What is your input on this?

When someone speaks directly to one person about their personal issues and another person watching and not being spoken to. Is it rude for the person to watch the whole converstation right in front of them?

First of all, i hate death metal, its lyrics are satanic (well most of them, not all). Most metal bands are bad influence to young people (thanks godness i wasn't perverted by that music). They make them believe that there is no god. And influence them to commit suicide. As we know most of the school shootings were caused by sick minded people who listened to such destructive music. Death metal also spreads the belief of Anarchism, Atheism, suicide, genocide and alot of more stuff.
And finally this is just my humble opinion. Thanks.

What non-bias reliable evidence do you have to support your claim? Baring in mind that anything which is religious based does not count, as it is going to be biased without any actual study.

The American Psychologigal Association have actually bothered to do several full studies concerning this, rather than just assuming that they were right without looking it to the situation properly, and they've determined that it is NOT a choice http://www.apa.org/topics/orientation.html . More qualified organisations , such as Boston University, South Bank University, ARS Technica etc have also come to the same conclusion. These and more all know what they're doing since they're the professionals. You are not. So, what makes you think that the world's main-stream qualified psychological and biological organisations are wrong, and you (with no study or evidence) are right?

Because in reality, you sound as dumb as someone who still refuses to except that the world is round, and not flat.

(I confess I have said it many times in my life; and herein is my public apology for not actually stating who said it, so that we can examine the saying contextually.)

For example: Moses said that it was bad (a sin) for a homosexual man to be unfaithful to his wife by lying with another man in his wife's wedding bed.

V’et zachar lo tishkav mishk’vey eeshah toeyvah hee."

But I hear people saying, "The Bible says homosexuality is a sin, or they say "God said homosexuality is a sin". --

(Moses never came to that conclusion, Jesus never came to that conclusion, Paul, in a personal letter, kind of came to that conclusion. -- So why would someone say, "The Bible proves that God thinks of homosexuality as a sin?"

Christianity: 2.1 billion:
Islam: 1.5 billion:
Secular/Nonreligious/Agnostic/Atheist: 1.1 billion
Hinduism: 900 million
Chinese traditional religion: 394 million
Buddhism: 376 million

Does this mean that the billions of nonchrisitians are going to hell, unless they convert to chrisitianity? Why would God make so many people who are doomed to go to hell?

so togther with my native English I can be trilingual. I want to learn Spanish and Arabic. I know this will be a challenge, but my question is will it be to hard to learn both at the same time? Spanish will be easy because I can already speak a little bit. And I deal with spanish speaking people at work all day. Arabic will be another story because I don't know anybody who speaks it and won't be able to speak it as often. Can somebody please give me some input.

She tells true tales of her kinsmen this is true
But on this day she lies a wee bit to you.
She told of fair men & damsels too,
who were given wine & smokes, but just a few.
Then the building did shake
And even the cook was at stake.
The closet's became a portals into fun time
And, we the dragons, started our rhyme.
The folks became beasties in that brothel of sin
And this is where a new story begins.
Though the Scott has honor, that is for sure
Her cottage may not be so pure.
Has she been taken over my magic?
Only a dragon can save her & her habit.

My girfriend and I found out about a "Childfree" club. We have attended two events. I was told by "breeders" that it was just a "sex club", or a bunch of people sitting around complaining about children. I was sceptical, so we joined.

It was great. We sat around and drank. We laughed. We talked about current events, weather, vacations, movies, and such. Nobody's mobil phone rang. Nobody complained about kids, or ever made any "Childfree" jokes. In fact, nothing negative was brought up. Most everyone was educated, successful, and world traveled. I never seen so many highly functional people all together at once.

"I honestly don't know"? Most atheists believe that the existence of God is false, a fairy tale, etc. That's your belief. It is fine. You can add that you have plenty of evidence to support your belief. Theists do the same. It's fine.

Perhaps very few, but this seems to change from one question to the other, say that they honestly don't know. That's better, more open, but it seems to be rare.

In a previous question, I asked why some atheists say that God is a fairy tale, etc. and yet refuse to admit that they have a belief. So again, do you see the difference between "I believe that it's false, a fairy tale, etc." and "I honestly don't know"?

Here is a link to the previous question http://answers.yahoo.com/question/;_ylc=X3oDMTE1MmI4N2IyBF9TAzIxMTU1MDAxMTgEc2VjA2Fuc19ub3QEc2xrA3N1YmplY3Q-;_ylv=3?qid=20071005232439AAB9jbV

You guys need to know that I realize that you are not prepared for such intense questions. I want to apologize for the intensity and when I ask Mormon questions I will try to make them easier to answer.

During the last week my computer has been shutting down unexpectedly and I suspect that the Mormons have sent me a virus. So I am professing my great sorrow for asking too thought provoking of questions and will tone it down.
